As a speech therapist, many of my students struggle with reading. This workshop will allow me to add another “tool” to my tool belt to help my students better grasp the skills necessary for being successful readers. Students benefit from the Orton-Gillingham approach because it is multi sensory. It allows us to access each student in a way that is best suited for their learning needs. Research has indicated that children with language impairment often times have significant difficulties with reading. Children with SLI have been found to have poor word reading and decoding skills and associated reading comprehension and difficulties. This workshop can help me to teach my students how to read more effectively. My students will learn to break down how and why letters and words sound the way that they do. Students will be able to use multiple senses to understand the rules of reading.
